Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Cd163 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domain
  • scavenger receptor
  • SRCR domain
  • protein binding
  • cytosolic tail domain
